was in England enjoyed q triumph to be
compared with that of Mrs. LanKtrv, who
may now be seen in her glory, gowns and Al,
without a presentation at court. And yet
the American women, at least the fashions

cratic advantages IL they only knew it,
they surpass those whom they envy. Ameri-

able in Jacksonville at present. There are
a large number % gamblers who are regular
players and manage To obtain a livelihood III
this way. They play carefully, and never
venture their cash without having first felt
the lucky inspiration. When all of the signs
indicate that the tickle goddess will smile
upon them they play heavily, but when the
omen of bad or Indifferent luck is noticed
nothing will induce them to gamble.
Several months ago a wealthy dealer in

of his stay here frequently visited the faro

One evening he lost s., 900 at a single sitting.
The next night he won back $4,000. Before
playing each time he would go to a rear
room in the house and play three games OF
solitaire. IL he won all of them he risked all
he had on the first turn of the cards. If,
however, he lost one out OF the number he
ventured moderate sums and il he lost all
three he positively refused 10 play.

When be wakes in the morning he always
puts on his left boot first. IL by mistake he
picks up the one for the right foot, nothing
under the sun can induce him to play. II
another man sees a rusty nail on the pave

him, he picks it up and considers it a symbol
of good luck II the head is toward him he
will step to one side, and under no circum-

All the signs" OF good and bad luck are
on this order, and some of them are exceed

Tne News" Correct.

When Jacksonville was going wild
over the Inauguration of the new Clyde
line of steamers, THE NEWS said that
it and it's Florida connections would take
from Jacksonville the bulk of its great
lumber trade, which would be trans
ferred to Fernandina. The Jacksonville
papers laughed at the idea at the time,
ward and prints the following editorial
endorsement of our prediction:
"a well known lumber manufacturer
and shipper stated to the Herald this
morning, that at least one-half of the
lumber on the lines of the Florida Rail-
way and Navigation Company roads is
now going into Fernandina for reship-
ment by water. The impression that
Jacksonville is receiving the bulk of this
article of commerce is, therefore, erro-
neous. The above party also states
that by comparison of official figures it
could he proven that Fernandina's ex-
ports were gradually increasing while
Jacksonville's exports we're gradually
falling off.
To ascertain why this was the case, a
prominent Official of the +. X. & y. Rail
road was Intercepted. and he replied:
"Simpiy from the TACT that IL costs one
dollar less per thousand to re-ship from
Fernandina by sail vessels than it does
from Jacksonville" This statement was
corroborated by several lumber shippers
present.
at would seem to us that some plan
to regain this business or to stop it's
gradual slipping away from Jackson
vile should b. inaugurated. Ii the
trouble is in the st. Johns bar, then we
suppose there is no alternative hut to
wait patiently for its improvement"
